Public bug reported:
In Utopic, some Kipi plugins no longer appear in the Plugins menu in
Kipi-aware programs like Gwenview or Digikam. One example is the "Export
to Imgur" plugin, one that I frequently use.
After examing a few file locations, I saw that the file
kipiplugin_imgurexportui.rc isn't getting copied from
/usr/share/kde4/apps/kipi/ to the respective ~/.kde/share/apps/APP/
subdirectory.
For example, here's where the files for the ImageShack plugin appear:
steve@t520:~$ locate kipiplugin_imageshack
/home/steve/.kde/share/apps/digikam/kipiplugin_imageshackexportui.rc
/home/steve/.kde/share/apps/gwenview/kipiplugin_imageshackexportui.rc
/usr/lib/kde4/kipiplugin_imageshackexport.so
/usr/share/kde4/apps/kipi/kipiplugin_imageshackexportui.rc
/usr/share/kde4/services/kipiplugin_imageshackexport.desktop
And the files for the Imgur plugin:
steve@t520:~$ locate kipiplugin_imgur
/usr/lib/kde4/kipiplugin_imgurexport.so
/usr/share/kde4/apps/kipi/kipiplugin_imgurexportui.rc
/usr/share/kde4/services/kipiplugin_imgurexport.desktop
For further testing, I purged kipi-plugins and kipi-plugins from my
system and removed the ~/.kde/share/apps/gwenview/kipiplugin*.rc files.
Then I re-installled the two packages and ran Gwenview from the command
line. I chose the Plugins -> Export menu. The following output appeared
on the screen:

Following the hint "libkqoauth.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No
such file or directory" I installed the package libkqoauth0. After doing
that, "Export to Imgur" appears in the menu. The plugin also works -- I
can successfully upload an image. But the plugin also has a button to
enter authorization information (presumably from the OAuth library),
which may be confusing to some users.
At risk of stating a potential solution, it appears that kipi-plugins in
Utopic may need a few more dependencies:
* libmediawiki1
* libkvkontakte1
* libqoauth0
* libqtgstreamer-0.10-0
* libqtgstreamerutils-0.10-0
The version of kipi-plugins and kipi-plugins-common is 4.2.0-0ubuntu1.
